JAPANESE IRIS 
Don’t let the name frighten you, they are grown more extensively 
in China than in Japan. 
We have no more beautiful perennial than the Japanese Iris. The 
period of bloom is July 4th to the 25th and the gorgeous flowers, some- 
times eight or ten inches across, make a wonderful display. 
Cultural directions are few and simple. Good mellow soil, sunshine 
and plenty of water during June. Any manure is good fertilizer, but 
positively no lime or bone meal should be used. Give protection, of 
some coarse material, the first winter to prevent heaving by the frost. 
After that no protection is needed. 
Prices are for larger divisions than are usually sent out by nurseries. 
The shipping season begins August 15th.
